Anatomy of a Search - as seen by the Search Manager. A 'timeline' talk on a recent search by the Search Manager (and others) from their perspective. A journey through the thoughts and decisions (cause and effects) from initial contact through to completion. If you often wonder why things occur the way they do here is a chance to maybe see why. |
